Looking up does nothing for your squat.  Its a cue most coaches will endorse to help with keeping your chest up, which you can do while looking forward (maintaining a neutral spine creating a safer and more efficient position to lift greater amount of weights).

If you like setting up that wide OP you might want to try a low bar position.  Your knees were caving in pretty hard though, so if you want to maintain that position I'd start doing accessory work that'll strengthen your entire posterior chain and adductors.

Other than that, it looked good from the angle.  Try squatting barefoot or with flat soled shoes though lol


i hate seeing people stare at the ceiling when they deadlift and squat and then they wonder why their lumbar segment rounds
